The 2003 City-Wide Sidewalk <br />Improvement Project consists of the removal and replacement of deteriorated sidewalks. In <br />some areas, accessible ramps will be installed. <br /> <br />Survey, design and engineering were performed on this project utilizing City personnel. Each <br />year, staff estimates the bid quantities so that bid prices will be right at $50,000. On March 5, <br />2003, the City received competitive bids from 2 qualified contractors (see attached Bid <br />Tabulation). Brooks Concrete, Inc. of Pasadena submitted the low bid in the amount of <br />$60,855.50. The primary reason the lowest bid came in over the budgeted amount is the number <br />of accessible ramps included in this year's project and the price bid for each ramp. This project <br />identified 52 ramps to be constructed, which is roughly twice as many as previous projects. Staff <br />proposes that approximately 27 of the ramps be eliminated which would bring this project within <br />budget. The contract will be complete within 90 calendar days once the "Notice to Proceed" is <br />issued. <br /> <br />Brooks Concrete, Inc. has performed this work for the City in previous years and is considered <br />well qualified to perform the work. Staff recommends that City Council authorize a construction <br />contract with Brooks Concrete, Inc. in the amount of $50,000. This would include a reduction in <br />the bid quantity for ramps. <br /> <br />Action Required bv Council: <br /> <br />Consider approving an ordinance authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with <br />Brooks Concrete, Inc. in the amount of $50,000 for annual sidewalk replacement. <br /> <br />ADDroved for City Council Al!enda <br /> <br /> <br />11~(Y~()3 <br /> <br />>>ate <br />
